I haven't fought in another raid but I caught a lot of new pokemon the last few days.
Caught a Sandshrew, Jynx, Whiscash, Xatu (it was very low level though), and Carvanha.
Hatched a high level Mantine with about cp 1130. Caught enough Natu so I could evolve it into a higher cp Xatu at cp 887.
Caught another Eevee today so I finally had enough candies to evolve it. Now I have a Vaporeon with cp 2321.
Ended up participating in a raid with 3 other people without meaning to. I was just going to lose quickly and go but 3 other people came to join me in the battle.
It was against a Aggron. I think it was close to 7000 cp. We were close to winning but we were playing with only 5 minutes left. We ran out of time.
I got the achievement I needed for the special field research plus I wanted to come home to record a show so I left. They probably defeated it without me.
I wasn't much help anyway. I think I was the only one who lost and had to get more pokemon to fight. It would be cool to run into them again there but it's probably not likely
and I have no motivation to join a local Pokemon GO group.
Now I'm working toward A Mythical Discovery 4/8. I have to earn 5 candies walking with my buddy and evolve 20 pokemon.
Right now I have 68 candies for my Feebas and I should get another one soon since I'm at 4.1 out of 5 km.
